CARNIVAL CORPORATION LTD.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 –
General
Carnival Corporation Ltd. and its consolidated subsidiaries are collectively referred to as “Carnival Corporation,” “our,” “us” and “we” in these consolidated financial statements and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
DLC Unification and Redomiciliation
In May 2026, we completed the unification of the dual listed company structure under a single company, Carnival Corporation Ltd., listed solely on the New York Stock Exchange. Carnival plc shareholders received Carnival Corporation Ltd. shares on a one-for-one basis, and the Carnival plc shares and American Depositary Receipts were de-listed from the London Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange (“DLC Unification”). Additionally, we completed the migration of our legal incorporation from Panama to Bermuda (“Redomiciliation”). There have been no material changes to our business, including strategy, underlying assets and operations following the DLC Unification and Redomiciliation. As a result of these transactions, the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity as of May 31, 2026, reflect only the equity of Carnival Corporation Ltd.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of our management, contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. The preparation of our interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. We have made reasonable estimates and judgments of such items within our consolidated financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods. Our operations are seasonal and results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.
Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Carnival Corporation & plc 2025 joint Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on January 27, 2026 (“Form 10-K”).
For 2025, we reclassified certain immaterial amounts within the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications did not affect net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing or financing activities. We also reclassified certain immaterial amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss), Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Consolidated Statements of Shareholders’ Equity to separately present amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily associated with our subsidiaries that operate Isla Tropicale and Amber Cove.
Property and Equipment
We review estimated useful lives and residual values of our ships for reasonableness whenever events or circumstances indicate a revision is warranted. In December 2025, we completed such review considering the period over which we expect to operate our ships and our long-term plans. As a result, we extended our ships’ depreciable lives to
35
years. In connection with the increase in estimated useful life, we reduced our estimated residual value of each ship to be
5
% of our original ship cost for LNG powered ships and a range of salvage values under $
25
million for all other ships, depending on the class and tonnage of the ship. This revision did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and has been applied prospectively beginning December 1, 2025.
Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance,
Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
. This guidance requires disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction, as well as other amendments relating to income tax disclosures. This guidance is required to be adopted by us for our fiscal 2026 annual financial statements on a prospective basis with the option to apply retrospectively. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.
7
Table of Contents
In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance,
Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures - Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
. This guidance requires annual and interim disclosure of disaggregated information for certain costs and expenses. This guidance is required to be adopted by us beginning with our fiscal 2028 annual financial statements and fiscal 2029 interim periods on a prospective or retrospective basis. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the
FASB issued guidance,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets.
This guidance provides a practical expedient permitting an entity to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets accounted for under
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
. This guidance is required to be adopted by us in the first quarter of 2027 on a prospective basis. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued guidance,
Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software - Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software
. This guidance removes references to software development stages. Entities will be required to start capitalizing software costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (ii) it is probable the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. This guidance is required to be adopted by us in
the first quarter of
2029 on a prospective, modified, or retrospective basis. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2026, the FASB issued guidance,
Environmental Credits and Environmental Credit Obligations
. This guidance establishes recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure requirements for all entities that generate, purchase, or receive environmental credits or have a regulatory compliance obligation that may be settled with environmental credits. This guidance is required to be adopted by us in the first quarter of 2029 on a retrospective basis. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2 –
Revenue and Expense Recognition
Guest cruise deposits and advance onboard purchases are initially included in Customer deposits when received. Customer deposits are subsequently recognized as cruise revenues, together with revenues from onboard and other activities, and all associated direct expenses of a voyage are recognized as cruise expenses, upon completion of voyages with durations of ten nights or less and on a pro rata basis for voyages in excess of ten nights. The impact of recognizing these shorter duration cruise revenues and expenses on a completed voyage basis versus on a pro rata basis is not material. Certain of our product offerings are bundled and we allocate the value of the bundled services and goods between Passenger ticket revenues and Onboard and other revenues based upon the estimated standalone selling prices of those goods and services. Future travel discount vouchers are included as a reduction of Passenger ticket revenues when such vouchers are utilized. Guest cancellation fees, when applicable, are recognized in Passenger ticket revenues at the time of cancellation.
Our sales to guests of air and other transportation to and from airports near the home ports of our ships are included in Passenger ticket revenues. The related expenses of these services are included in Prepaid expenses and other when paid prior to the start of a voyage and are subsequently recognized in Commissions, transportation and other expenses at the time of revenue recognition. We had prepaid air and other transportation expenses of $
210
million as of May 31, 2026 and $
233
million as of November 30, 2025. The proceeds that we collect from the sales of third-party shore excursions are included in Onboard and other revenues and the related expenses are included in Onboard and other expenses. The amounts collected on behalf of our onboard concessionaires, net of the amounts remitted to them, are included in Onboard and other revenues as concession revenues. All of these amounts are recognized on a completed voyage or pro rata basis as discussed above.
Fees, taxes and charges that vary with guest head counts are expensed in Commissions, transportation and other expenses when the corresponding revenues are recognized. The remaining portion of fees, taxes and charges are expensed in Other operating expenses when the corresponding revenues are recognized.
Revenues and expenses from our hotel and transportation operations, which are included in our Tour and Other segment, are recognized at the time the services are performed.

(a)
No other individual country’s revenue exceeded 10% for the three and six months ended May 31, 2026 and 2025.
Customer Deposits
Our payment terms generally require an initial deposit to confirm a reservation, with the balance due prior to the voyage. We also offer our guests the opportunity to make advance purchases of certain onboard and other services. Cash received from guests in advance of the cruise is recorded in Customer deposits and in Other long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts include refundable deposits. We had total customer deposits of $
9.0
billion as of May 31, 2026 and $
7.2
billion as of November 30, 2025. Our customer deposits balance changes due to the seasonal nature of cash collections, which typically results from higher ticket prices and occupancy levels during the third quarter, the recognition of revenue, refunds of customer deposits and foreign currency changes.
Trade and Other Receivables
Although we generally require full payment from our guests prior to or concurrently with their cruise, we grant credit terms to a relatively small portion of our revenue source. We have receivables from credit card merchants and travel agents for cruise ticket purchases and onboard revenue. These receivables are included within Trade and other receivables, net and are less allowances for expected credit losses.
Contract Costs
We recognize incremental travel agent commissions and credit and debit card fees incurred as a result of obtaining the ticket contract as assets when paid prior to the start of a voyage. We record these amounts within Prepaid expenses and other and subsequently recognize these amounts as Commissions, transportation and other at the time of revenue recognition or at the time of voyage cancellation. We had incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers recognized as assets of $
481
million as of May 31, 2026 and $
363
million as of
November 30, 2025
.

As of May 31, 2026, the net book value of our ships and ship improvements, excluding ships under construction, was $
40.3
billion. Our secured debt is secured on a first-priority basis by certain collateral, which includes ships and certain assets related to those ships and material intellectual property (combined net book value of approximately $
22.4
billion, including $
20.6
billion related to ships and certain assets related to those ships as of May 31, 2026) and certain other assets.
Convertible Notes
In December 2025, we settled $
1.1
billion principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes, resulting in the issuance of
69.1
million shares of Carnival Corporation common stock and a cash payment of $
500
million.
Covenant Compliance
As of May 31, 2026, the most restrictive covenants for our Revolving Facility, unsecured loans and export credit facilities include the following:
•
Maintain minimum interest coverage (adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net interest charges, as defined in the agreements) at a ratio of not less than
3.0
to 1.0
•
Maintain minimum issued capital and consolidated reserves (as defined in the agreements) of $
5.0
billion
•
Limit our debt to capital (as defined in the agreements) percentage to a percentage not to exceed
65
%
•
Maintain minimum liquidity of $
1.5
billion
•
Limit the amounts of our secured assets as well as secured and other indebtedness
11
Table of Contents
At
May 31, 2026
, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants under our debt agreements.
Generally, if an event of default under any debt agreement occurs, then, pursuant to cross-default and/or cross-acceleration clauses therein, substantially all of our outstanding debt could become due, and our debt could be terminated. Any financial covenant amendment may lead to increased costs, increased interest rates, additional restrictive covenants and other available lender protections that would be applicable.
NOTE 4 –
Contingencies and Commitments
Litigation
We are routinely involved in legal proceedings, claims, disputes, regulatory matters and governmental inspections or investigations arising in the ordinary course of or incidental to our business. We have insurance coverage for certain of these claims and actions, or any settlement of these claims and actions, and historically the maximum amount of our liability, net of any insurance recoverables, has been limited to our self-insurance retention levels.
We record provisions in the consolidated financial statements for pending litigation when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
Legal proceedings and government investigations are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings or other events could occur. Unfavorable resolutions could involve substantial monetary damages. In addition, in matters for which conduct remedies are sought, unfavorable resolutions could include an injunction or other order prohibiting us from selling one or more products at all or in particular ways, precluding particular business practices or requiring other remedies. An unfavorable outcome might result in a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial position or liquidity.
As previously disclosed, on May 2, 2019, the Havana Docks Corporation filed a lawsuit against Carnival Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida under Title III of the Cuban Liberty and Democratic Solidarity Act, also known as the Helms-Burton Act, alleging that Carnival Corporation “trafficked” in confiscated Cuban property. On December 30, 2022, the court entered judgment against Carnival Corporation in the amount of $
110
million plus $
4
million in fees and costs. We appealed. On October 22, 2024, the Court of Appeals for the 11
th
Circuit reversed the District Court’s judgment against us. The plaintiffs appealed. On May 21, 2026, the Supreme Court vacated the 11
th
Circuit’s ruling and remanded the case to the 11
th
Circuit for further proceedings on several remaining appellate issues. We believe the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
As of May 31, 2026,
two
purported class actions brought against us by former guests in the Federal Court in Australia and in Italy remain pending, as previously disclosed. These actions include claims based on a variety of theories, including negligence, gross negligence and failure to warn, physical injuries and severe emotional distress associated with being exposed to and/or contracting COVID-19 onboard our ships. On March 31, 2025, the court in the Italian matter returned a ruling rejecting most of the plaintiffs’ claims and awarding a half-price fare reduction for certain passengers.
Plaintiffs appealed the ruling. On April 21, 2026, the appellate court reversed the lower court’s decision, ordering us to pay damages of a non-material amount. We believe the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In April 2026,
six
purported class actions were brought in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Carnival Corporation in relation to a data security incident which occurred on April 14, 2026.
These actions include claims based on a variety of theories, including negligence, breach of implied contract, invasion of privacy and unjust enrichment, and seek equitable relief and monetary damages. In May 2026, the District Court granted the various plaintiffs’ motion to consolidate the matters. We believe the outcome of this matter will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Regulatory or Governmental Inquiries and Investigations
We have been, and may continue to be, impacted by breaches in data security and lapses in data privacy, which occur from time to time. These can vary in scope and range from inadvertent events to malicious motivated attacks.
We have incurred legal and other costs in connection with cyber incidents that have impacted us. The costs associated with cyber incidents over the last three years were not material. While past incidents did not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position or liquidity, no assurances can be given about the future and we may be subject to future attacks, incidents or litigation that could have such a material adverse effect.

Table of Contents
On March 14, 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notified us of potential civil penalties and injunctive relief for alleged Clean Water Act violations by owned and operated vessels covered by the 2013 Vessel General Permit. We are working with these agencies to reach a resolution of this matter. We believe the ultimate outcome will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Other Contingent Obligations
Some of the debt contracts we enter into include indemnification provisions obligating us to make payments to the counterparty if certain events occur. These contingencies generally relate to changes in taxes or changes in laws which increase the lender’s costs. There are no stated or notional amounts included in the indemnification clauses, and we are not able to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments, if any, under these indemnification clauses.
Ship Commitments
As of May 31, 2026, our new ship growth capital commitments were $
0.5
billion for the remainder of 2026 and $
1.6
billion, $
1.5
billion, $
1.8
billion, $
1.7
billion and $
11.4
billion for the years ending November 30, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030 and thereafter.
NOTE 5 –
Fair Value Measurements and Financial Risks
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured using inputs in one of the following three categories:
•
Level 1 measurements are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.
•
Level 2 measurements are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or market data other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities.
•
Level 3 measurements are based on unobservable data that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Considerable judgment may be required in interpreting market data used to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, certain estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current or future market exchange.

The debt amounts above do not include the impact of debt issuance costs and discounts. The fair values of our publicly-traded notes were based on their unadjusted quoted market prices in markets that are not sufficiently active to be Level 1 and, accordingly, are considered Level 2. The fair values of our other debt were estimated based on current market interest rates being applied to this debt.

Financial Risks
Fuel Price Risks
We manage our exposure to fuel price risk by managing our consumption of fuel. Substantially all of our exposure to market risk for changes in fuel prices relates to the consumption of fuel on our ships. We manage fuel consumption through fleet optimization, energy efficiency, itinerary efficiency, new technologies and alternative fuels.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risks
Overall Strategy
We manage our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through our normal operating and financing activities, including netting certain exposures to take advantage of any natural offsets and, when considered appropriate, through the use of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments. Our primary focus is to monitor our exposure to, and manage, the economic foreign currency exchange risks faced by our operations and realized if we exchange one currency for another. We consider hedging certain of our ship commitments and net investments in foreign operations. When we utilize hedging instruments, the financial impacts generally offset the changes in the underlying exposures being hedged.
Operational Currency Risks
Our operations primarily utilize U.S. dollar, Euro or Sterling as their functional currencies. Our operations also have revenue and expenses denominated in non-functional currencies. Movements in foreign currency exchange rates affect our consolidated financial statements.
Investment Currency Risks
We consider our investments in foreign operations to be denominated in stable currencies and of a long-term nature. We have euro-denominated debt which provides an economic offset for our operations with euro functional currency. In addition, we have in the past and may in the future utilize derivative financial instruments, such as cross currency swaps, to manage our exposure to investment currency risks.
14
Table of Contents
Newbuild Currency Risks
Our shipbuilding contracts are typically denominated in euros. At May 31, 2026, our newbuild currency exchange rate risk relates to euro-denominated newbuild contract payments for non-euro functional currency cruise lines. The cost of shipbuilding orders that we may place in the future that are denominated in a different currency than the functional currency of the cruise line will be affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. These foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations may affect our decision to order new cruise ships. We have in the past and may in the future utilize derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency derivatives, to manage our exposure to newbuild currency risks. Our decisions to hedge non-functional currency ship commitments for our cruise lines are made on a case-by-case basis, considering the amount and duration of the exposure, market volatility, economic trends, our overall expected net cash flows by currency and other offsetting risks.
Interest Rate Risks
We manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates through our debt portfolio management and investment strategies. We evaluate our debt portfolio to determine whether to make periodic adjustments to the mix of fixed and floating rate debt through the use of interest rate swaps, refinancing of existing debt and the issuance of new debt.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
As part of our ongoing control procedures, we monitor concentrations of credit risk associated with financial and other institutions with which we conduct significant business. We seek to manage these credit risk exposures, including counterparty nonperformance primarily associated with our cash and cash equivalents, investments, notes receivables, future financing facilities, contingent obligations, derivative instruments, insurance contracts and new ship progress payment guarantees, by:
•
Conducting business with well-established financial institutions, insurance companies and export credit agencies
•
Diversifying our counterparties
•
Having guidelines regarding credit ratings and investment maturities that we follow to help safeguard liquidity and minimize risk
•
Generally requiring collateral and/or guarantees to support notes receivable on significant asset sales and new ship progress payments to shipyards
We also monitor the creditworthiness of travel agencies, tour operators and credit and debit card providers to which we extend credit in the normal course of our business. Our credit exposure also includes contingent obligations related to cash payments received directly by travel agents and tour operators for cash collected by them on cruise sales in certain European countries where we are obligated to honor our guests’ cruise payments made by them to their travel agents and tour operators regardless of whether we have received these payments.
Concentrations of credit risk associated with trade receivables and other receivables, charter-hire agreements and contingent obligations are not considered to be material, principally due to the large number of unrelated accounts, the nature of these contingent obligations and their short maturities. Normally, we have not required collateral or other security to support normal credit sales and have not experienced significant credit losses.
NOTE 6 –
Segment Information
The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is our Chief Executive Officer, assesses performance and makes decisions to allocate resources based upon review of the results across all of our segments. The operating segments within each of our reportable segments have been aggregated based on the similarity of their economic and other characteristics, including geographic guest sourcing. Our
four
reportable segments are comprised of (1) North America cruise operations (“North America”), (2) Europe cruise operations (“Europe”), (3) Cruise Support and (4) Tour and Other.
Our Cruise Support segment includes our portfolio of leading port destinations and exclusive islands as well as other services, all of which are operated for the benefit of our cruise lines. Our Tour and Other segment represents the hotel and transportation operations of Holland America Princess Alaska Tours and other operations.
Our CODM uses adjusted operating income (loss) in assessing segment performance and determining how to allocate resources. This metric is used to review segment operating trends and monitor variances against the plan and prior year results. Resource allocation primarily occurs during the annual capital appropriation process.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
.
Cautionary Note Concerning Factors That May Affect Future Results
Some of the statements, estimates or projections contained in this document are “forward-looking statements” that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions with respect to us, including statements concerning future results, operations, strategy, outlooks, plans, goals, reputation, cash flows, liquidity and other events which have not yet occurred. These statements are intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts are statements that could be deemed forward-looking. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate and the beliefs and assumptions of our management. We have tried, whenever possible, to identify these statements by using words like “will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “depends,” “expect,” “goal,” “aspiration,” “anticipate,” “forecast,” “project,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “indicate,” “outlook,” and similar expressions of future intent or the negative of such terms.
Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are many factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. This note contains important cautionary statements of the known factors that we consider could materially affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial position. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
•
Events and conditions around the world, including geopolitical uncertainty, war and other military actions, pandemics, inflation, higher interest rates and other general concerns impacting the ability or desire of people to travel could lead to a decline in demand for cruises as well as have significant negative impacts on our financial condition and operations.
•
Incidents concerning our ships, guests or the cruise industry may negatively impact the satisfaction of our guests and crew and lead to reputational damage.
•
Adverse weather conditions or an increase in the frequency and/or severity of adverse weather conditions could have a material impact on our business and results of operations.
•
Our targets, goals, aspirations, initiatives, public statements and disclosures, including those related to sustainability matters, may expose us to risks that may adversely impact our business.
•
Cybersecurity incidents and data privacy breaches, as well as disruptions and other damages to our principal and other offices, information technology operations and system networks and failure to keep pace with developments in technology may adversely impact our business operations, the satisfaction of our guests and crew and may lead to fines, penalties and reputational damage.
•
Our debt requires a significant amount of cash to service and our ability to generate sufficient cash depends on many factors, some of which may be beyond our control. Our financial condition and operations could be adversely impacted if we are unable to service our debt or satisfy our covenants.
•
Increases in fuel costs, changes in the types of fuel consumed and availability of fuel supply may adversely impact our scheduled itineraries and costs.
•
The loss of key team members, our inability to recruit or retain qualified shoreside and shipboard team members and increased labor costs could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
•
We rely on suppliers who are integral to the operations of our businesses. These suppliers and service providers may be unable to deliver on their commitments, which could negatively impact our business.
•
Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely impact our financial results.
•
Our investments in port destinations and exclusive islands may expose us to additional risks.
•
Overcapacity and competition in the cruise and land-based vacation industry may negatively impact our cruise sales, pricing and destination options.
•
Inability to implement our shipbuilding programs and ship repairs, maintenance and refurbishments may adversely impact our business operations and the satisfaction of our guests.
•
Changes in and non-compliance with laws and regulations under which we operate, such as those relating to health, environment, safety and security, data privacy and protection, anti-money laundering, anti-corruption, economic sanctions, trade protection measures, labor and employment, and tax may be costly and lead to litigation, enforcement actions, fines, penalties and reputational damage.
•
Factors associated with sustainability and the impact of greenhouse gases and other emissions on the environment could have a material impact on our business and operating results.
The ordering of the risk factors set forth above is not intended to reflect our indication of priority or likelihood. There may be additional risks that we consider immaterial or which are unknown. Additional information about the factors that may affect future results is contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as our other filings with the SEC, all of which are available on the SEC's website at

Critical Accounting Estimates
For a discussion of our critical accounting estimates, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” that is included in the Form 10-K.
Seasonality
Our Passenger ticket revenues are seasonal. Demand for cruises has been greatest during our third quarter, which includes the Northern Hemisphere summer months. This higher demand during the third quarter results in higher ticket prices and occupancy levels and, accordingly, the largest share of our operating income is typically earned during this period. Our results are also impacted by ships being taken out-of-service for planned maintenance, which we schedule during non-peak seasons. In addition, substantially all of Holland America Princess Alaska Tours’ revenue and operating income is generated from May through September in conjunction with Alaska’s cruise season.
Known Trends and Uncertainties
Recent geopolitical tensions and related concerns have and could continue to impact our profitability
and may heighten other risks discussed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” included in the Form 10-K.
In addition, while fuel prices have recently moderated, any renewed disruptions or escalation could result in increased fuel costs and adversely impact our profitability.
We became subject to the EU Emissions Trading System (“ETS”) on January 1, 2024, which includes a three-year phase-in period. The impact of this regulation in 2025 was $91 million, which represented costs associated with 70% of emissions under the ETS operational scope. In 2026, all in scope emissions are impacted. We believe fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and evolving regulatory requirements related to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions may adversely impact our profitability in both the short and long term.

Notes to Statistical Information
(a)
PCD represents the number of cruise passengers on a voyage multiplied by the number of revenue-producing ship operating days for that voyage.
(b)
ALBD is a standard measure of passenger capacity for the period that we use to approximate rate and capacity variances, based on consistently applied formulas that we use to perform analyses to determine the main non-capacity driven factors that cause our cruise revenues and expenses to vary. ALBDs assume that each cabin we offer for sale accommodates two passengers and is computed by multiplying passenger capacity by revenue-producing ship operating days in the period.
(c)
For the three and six months ended May 31, 2026 compared to the three and six months ended May 31, 2025, we had a 2.0% capacity increase and a 1.2% capacity increase in ALBDs.
(d)
Occupancy, in accordance with cruise industry practice, is calculated using a numerator of PCDs and a denominator of ALBDs, which assumes two passengers per cabin even though some cabins can accommodate three or more passengers. Percentages in excess of 100% indicate that on average more than two passengers occupied some cabins.

Liquidity, Financial Condition and Capital Resources
As of May 31, 2026, we had $6.7 billion of liquidity including $2.2 billion of cash and cash equivalents and $4.5 billion available for borrowing under our multicurrency revolving credit facility

n, we had $10.8 billion of undrawn export credit facilities to fund future ship deliveries
.
We had a working capital deficit of
$8.9 billion
as of May 31, 2026 and November 30, 2025. We operate with a substantial working capital deficit, largely due to our business model in which guest cruise deposits and the advance purchases of onboard and other services are collected ahead of the sailing date and recorded as a liability until recognized as revenue. These customer deposits are used alongside other cash sources to fund operations, service debt, and support capital investments. In addition, we have a relatively low level of accounts receivable and limited investment in inventories.
We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements, including guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests, certain derivative instruments and variable interest entities that either have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Sources and Uses of Cash
Operating Activities
Our business provided $3.9 billion of net cash flows from operating activities during the six months ended May 31, 2026, an increase of $575 million, compared to $3.3 billion provided for the same period in 2025. This was caused by an improvement in our earnings with $801 million of net income in 2026 compared to $494 million of net income in 2025, which includes the nonrecurrence of gains from the sale of one North America segment ship and one Europe segment ship in 2025, partially offset by the nonrecurrence of losses on debt extinguishment in 2025, as well as other working capital changes.
Investing Activities
During the six months ended May 31, 2026, net cash used in investing activities was $1.5 billion. This was caused by:
•
Capital expenditures of $1.4 billion substantially all attributable to ship improvements, our ongoing new shipbuilding program and development of our portfolio of exclusive destinations
•
Advances of $46 million to one of our equity method investments
During the six months ended May 31, 2025, net cash used in investing activities was $1.2 billion. This was driven by:
•
Capital expenditures of $1.5 billion primarily attributable to ship improvements and developments in our port destinations and exclusive islands
•
Proceeds of $312 million substantially all from the sales of one North America segment ship and one Europe segment ship
Financing Activities
During the six months ended May 31, 2026, net cash used in financing activities of $2.1 billion was driven by:
•
Repayments of $1.2 billion of long-term debt
•
Dividends of $414 million
•
Share repurchases of $381 million
During the six months ended May 31, 2025, net cash used in financing activities of $1.2 billion was caused by:
•
Repayments of $5.1 billion of long-term debt
•
Debt issuance costs of $41 million
•
Debt extinguishment costs of $197 million
•
Issuances of $4.1 billion of long-term debt
Funding Sources
We plan to use existing liquidity and future cash flows from operations to fund our cash requirements including capital expenditures not funded by our export credit facilities. We seek to manage our credit risk exposures, including counterparty nonperformance associated with our cash and cash equivalents, and future financing facilities by conducting business with well-established financial institutions, and export credit agencies and diversifying our counterparties.
